More fun with Drupal...
Nov. 25th, 2007 04:12 amDelved into deeper depths of Drupal by trying to tackle Views. These are essentially lists you can configure, and which are very helpful. However, I find that e.g. creating something like the Kinky Linklist is a bit trickier than expected, because it not only includes contents of the type "weblinks" in format A, but also my own stories in format B. And these two different types don't look good in combination at the moment.
Looks as if I've got to have a more detailed encounter with some php scripts that tackle outputting lists based on taxonomy. For example, it is possible to add a block (structural element in Drupal) that contains such a php script, and to say 'be the page footer' - and *snip* I've got a list for my pairing terms and the respective number of stories for each :) Which is cool. Now, if I also knew how "page regions" worked so that I can include that block into a page instead of the footer...well, tomorrow. *yawns and falls into bed*
P.S. Feel slightly guilty for not submitting anything to any "fan fic advent calendar" - maybe I can write something over the next days.
